This past weekend a few of us from the Seattle office enjoyed a day of volunteering with Washington Water Trails Association, joining forces with several other good folks. We removed invasive plants from tiny Blind Island in the San Juan Islands. There are several WWTA campsites on the island, which is situated in the middle of the San Juans. Great place and great day of giving back to one of the places we cherish. Good times and good work!
